Reading: The Night Sister by Jennifer McMahon
Listening To: "Zach Braff's Ipod" playlist on Spotify. So good!
Smelling: maple and brown sugar oatmeal
Planning: a February/March vacation to Costa Rica,.. or the Dominican Republic,... some place hot where there's ocean and little umbrellas in my drinks.
Needing: To take stuff to Plato's Closet or donate it. It's not selling online at Poshmark and it's taking up too much space in my apt and in my head.
Anticipating: our road-trip to the Kentucky Bourbon Trail next week!
Appreciating: Other people's decorations. I love all the lights. It gives me a warm fuzzy feeling.
Wishing: That my bank didn't do something weird to my account which prevented me from cashing in on the extended Cyber Monday sales yesterday, and caused me to have a minor meltdown at 11:30pm while on the phone with the lovely JCP customer service representative. (She really was great- she promised me 50% off my order once I fixed whatever was going on at the bank.)
Remembering: Last year, and how vastly different this year is, both good and bad. I lost two great aunts early this year, and this will be the first Christmas without them.
Wrapping: Nothing yet; still waiting for the gifts I ordered on Cyber Monday to be delivered.
Baking: Nothing. But these look pretty tasty...
a trip to costa rica sounds wonderful!!!
ReplyDeleteWe have a Plato's Closet?!? Why didn't I know about this?! MUST VISIT! I love seeing other people's decor too. And not just for the holidays. I love when people leave their blinds/curtains open and I can see the way they've styled a room in their home. Yeah, I admit it - I'm a peeping tom for decor!
ReplyDeleteThat Bourbon Trail sounds fabulous!!!! As does your trip you are planning :) I love looking at all the decor as I drive home at night. So many people have trees in front of their windows that are lit when I come through. I just wish it was cooler here to fully feel like the holiday season!
ReplyDeleteI gave up on Poshmark too. Then I went with Plato's/Buffalo Exchange and then finally ThredUp for everything that didn't sell at those places!
ReplyDeleteI love driving or walking around after it gets dark in December. The lights are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love a great road trip!
ReplyDeleteI say donate those clothes, get them out! I'm hoping to go through mine this weekend...when I switched my clothes over this year, I didn't spend any time evaluating them like I usually do.
Costa Rica is amazing, you should 100% go! We went last March for my spring break and the weather was perfect! I am dying to check out the Kentucky Bourbon trail and those cupcakes are right up my alley!
ReplyDeleteThat's so awesome that you had such great customer service with JCP!!!
ReplyDeleteooooooooooo....those cupcakes.......
ReplyDeleteI have a different Jennifer MacMahon book checked out from the library. I need to get on that.
Can't wait to hear about your road trip!
One of the reasons I love living where I do is that I get to see amazing outdoor decorations this time of year. I've already spotted a few on my running routes and it is glorious!
ReplyDeleteOooh, your vacation planning sounds amazing! I can't wait to see what you pick! Your road trip sounds like so much fun too! We're slowly starting to put lights on our house, but I appreciate my neighbors who go all out a lot more. Haha!
ReplyDeleteMaple and brown sugar oatmeal sounds SO good! My dad used to make that for us for breakfast sometimes when I was younger. Now I really want some!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up!!
